Urban green infrastructure allows cities to adapt to climate change. By having green roofs, parks, and urban forests, cities can improve their capacity for managing stormwater, reducing urban heat, and improving air quality. These green spaces help wildlife, and they offer recreational opportunities for residents. How can green infrastructure be used into existing urban landscapes to maximize climate resilience? What are the potential barriers to implementing these solutions on a larger scale? In what ways do you think communities can benefit from increased green infrastructure?
